Watsky - Love Letters Lyrics

I'M SORRY..... don't know how but I will fix this.... there's prophets among us walking... 86 bars... I love you.. .. with every heart beat.

Imsorryimsorryimsorry

I fucking love this song, and I've probably listened to it at least a few thousand times or more by now. Every time I hear it, I feel it with all that I am. I love letters...

Does anyone know why the music video can only be found in the full length album film or on other channels? the music video for this video is one of my favoritessss

You can so tell that he used to do spoken word.

Hey you could send me love letters.. Just a thought lol 😱 ❤☮

Damn this song is 🔥

DAMN it my line toying with "ghost-write the wit" versus "ghost-ride the whip" is no longer original

Am I the only person that actually stopped to look up Tim and Migoo?

Shame this never got a video

Is this going to be re-uploaded with the video?

WATSKY IS MY SHIT

I hope you get really big with your next album

love you!! also you said my home town..waterloo haba

watsky has a song to fit every mood, sometimes a few for each one.

Danny Murphy in PA I love you peaches! You bad and boujee boo bear. Miss laughin with you in person. You made that halfway something Im glad happened because we woulda never met if it wasnt for those crazy sobriety nazis

Reminds me of Sweaters II by Ivan B

This song is crazy bad ass

*"Sell it to somebody who can ghost-ride the whip"*

Austin?

He deserves a personal fluffer like a G ass pornstar cuz he's just got it like THAT. Lol.

The drum is never the enemy of the pen
But when I'm meeting mentally with beat and melody then
One of me can turn into ten of me
If there's ten of me, tell me how many heavenly similes can we blend?
Like women and men would fall with no friends
Like a rose would fall with no stem
Like most folks follow trends
Like Os follow LMNs
That's how well I know life flows with the elements
As sunrise kills an evening
As stars die and a night sky is grieving
As man sees what he has when it's leaving
You gone is as asthma to breathing
That's how much I need you in my life
I'm never gonna ever leave you in my lifetime
Cause every time I hear line
 that shows me I'm not alone it's saving me
Cause I know that that's a lifeline
Like minds—this is our home and they won't ruin it easily
Cause the wolf is gonna blow until he's blue in the cheek
And me and you and the crew can go take a snooze in the street
And the bulldozer can come chew on our feet
We never let em through
We'll build a levy
Limit the river's level
Steady the flood and begin with a pebble
Lend me one syllable
Come if you're ready to shovel
Run if you're shaking
But I know that today is not my Waterloo

You've made a place where I'm welcome
And although I give voice to it seldom
Know I love you
Nobody's above you
And if you love someone then you tell them

Every day the planet's losing IQ points
But people still bumping Ice Cube joints
So I've got hope
And every day I'm seeking my true voice
 and looking up at a bright new choice
Cause everybody's got a hustle and everyone's trying to push it
It's tricky to find the kush hiking up a mountain of bullshit
And there's another mountain of bullshit next to it littered with glitter, money
And strippers they're selling as good shit
It's nothing new up at the core though
Everything same as it's always been only more so
Of course so same token, while there's life there is truth
While there's truth it demands to be spoken
And someone's gonna speak it
It's really 
not a secret
You just need to search it
You just need
to seek it
And though we like to worship a genius
in a coffin
We often forget that there's prophets among us walking
And I know because I hear em when I am
in the clouds
And I got my music up and jamming it loud
And dammit whatever I am or could ever become
 I'm positive that I will
Always be a fan in the crowd
So gimme gimme gimme
Dylan and Biggy
Hit me with Jimi, Emily Dickinson, Eminem, Niki Giovanni Lennon, Kendrick, Gambino, Rafa, Chinaka, Dahlak and Missy, 
Saul and Beau and Paul and Kweli, Chali 2na and Chance and Seneca

86 I was thrown in the mix, saying
(Go in poet)
86 anyone who would stand in the path of a kid saying
(Go in poet)
86 bitches, 86 cups full of lean
(Go in poet)
86 bars, infinity ways to say what I mean

You've made a place where I'm welcome
And although I give voice to it seldom
Know I love you
Nobody's above you
And if you love someone then you tell them

So if you're blocking the future I wanna to walk toward
Suit yourself we're gonna lock swords
But it's a wash if you're saying "Watsky 
I could rock withcha if you didn't talk
Like some nails on a chalkboard
I can tell, that you're really on your dope writer tip
But you'll trip if you don't try to fit
Maybe you can make it if you ghostwrite a hit
And sell it to somebody who can ghostride 
a whip"
Shieeet I say no sirree
I can smell the weak shit through the potpourri
So I'm just gonna do what I do
You take a minute or two and Google "Tim and Magoo"
I love the that life I picked even if it ain't plush
I'm too glad complain much
I'm in the lab in a drab world
While these fuckers dab and do dabs and I dab on my pad with my paintbrush
This is for the kids whipping up some home-cooked
Spitting 86 bars, fuckin no hook
Lying in the grass
Passion their chest
And a ballpoint pressed in their notebook
Listen to me, this is for the word
Looking 
so fine 
I'm rubbing coconut oil up in the crack of
dat spine
This is for the times I'm reminded my mind isn't mine alone
This if for the poems and the lines
(And the letters in em)

86 I was thrown in the mix, saying
(Go in poet)
86 anyone who would stand in the path of a kid saying
(Go in poet)
86 bitches, 86 cups full of lean
(Go in poet)
86 bars, infinity ways to say what I mean

You've made a place where I'm welcome
And although I give voice to it seldom
Know I love you
Nobody's above you
And if you love someone then you tell them

Get this man a like

Thank you

please make this your next music video

HE DESERVES MORE PEOPLE TALKING ABOUT THIS ALBUM ARE YOU FUCKING KIDDING ME. THIS IS FIRE GOLD DRAGON BREATHE OUT OF ODINS MOUTH BITCHES

Great ode to the power words. I love the pun of love letters. On the surface it seems to be talking about another human being when in actuality it is an homage to language and the home he has found in poetry

BITCH ME TOO

I love this song so much. it's so pretty. if you love someone then you tell them, and I love watsky for writing this song

DUUDE you killed it in Denver last night! what an amazing show and time during a dire time period. Thank you so much for adding a massive silver lining for my Nov 8th 2016 <3 Can't wait to see you again! maybe 2017 at red rocks ;) guarantee you will sell that sht out! Love you Watsky. P.S. My wife says you have a cute butt ;)

I'm obsessed with the fucking chorus

yeah it's so... Different.

I feel like head banging lmao

ItsElement it's so good

ItsElement this song makes me wish I could dance

ItsElement Same.

Gotta be one of the hardest songs on the album, I love everything about it. You should listen to the latest song on my channel if you're looking for new music, I'm pretty alright.

Def my favorite song off the album =D

My god I love this song so much!

This is my favorite song on the album. It's so fucking good.

Dat icon.

I'd actually have to say this song quite possibly has the greatest lyrics ever written.

Maybe you can make it if you ghost write a hit and sell it to Peanut Butter Gamer

LaDarryl Winsley omg yes! XD

LaDarryl Winsley MAYBE YOU COULD HANG YOURSELF

@Nite Hawk I already tried....

But the rope snapped, yeah the rope snapped and then I found myself looking up from the ground. Looking up, looking up. Found things looking up. Found things looking not so down, no not so down. No.

@LaDarryl Winsley that was the best and most wholesome response. Nice job. Internet gold star.

that one sample sounds so familiar and i just cant remember

Golden Axe on Sega??

*Paintbrush dabbing Intensifies

I've been thinking he says "I'm never ever going to leave you with my laptop" since the album was released...oops

Fantastic

He Deserves to be huge in the game.

yessss!!!♡💯

$elfishbeats very true

$elfishbeats that's an understatement, this album deserves a Grammy, but most people are braindead so they listen to lil pump

he sounds like walle on album about nothing when he says "this is for the x, this is for the y"

who else thinks that from 2:41 to 2:58 kinda sounds like pink guy?

Jesse The Fox the pink lemonade man?

No, like Filthy Frank

yea i got that same vibe at 2:53

im just glad i found these on youtube, i listen to them everyday when i do my homework

this song, is just amazing.

Speechless <3
